I would definitely recommend this game to anyone. Although (spoilers) some people were unsatisfied with what happened to Joel and said that ND were incompetent for killing him off so easily, I believe that they did nothing wrong. The artwork and animation is absolutely gorgeous, and with Joel... well, he’s human. He wasn’t perfect, and was never meant to be. Although he was a cold and calculating man in the last of us and only cared about the safety of himself and those he considered his own, he became softer when he reunited back with his brother and when he took Ellie under his care. Age is also a contributing factor to his softness. He aged, eased up over the years. Actually started reaching out to help others. It’s no surprise that he wanted to help Abby as well.
